Greit by hotell.
Pros:

Vi likte hotell lobbyen den var med både lounge og restaurant så vi var der på kvelden etter en lang dag på reise. Veldig bra de hadde skyttelbusser inn til Waterfront. Vi kunne gå også det gjorde jo dag 2 når solen kom.
Store rom, men typisk business hotell i en stor by. Personalet var meget hyggelige og imøtekommende det satte vi stor pris på. Hotellet er greit for en natt ikke noe særlig lengre.

Cons:

Badebassenget og soldekket var stengt, en heis var i uorden.

Pros:

Quarto amplo e muito confortável. Funcionários muito atenciosos. Café da manhã muito bom com muitas opções. Recomendo

Cons:

Não tem passagem direta para o Waterfront, então você tem que ir andando pelo canal ou pegar o transfer grátis que o hotel oferece de hora em hora. Como a noite é perigoso andar a pé tem que pegar o transfer te limitando nos horários. Apesar disso, para nós foi ótimo
